Which pole? There will be two for the sprints.

At Lime Rock, a SP3 car had a marginally quicker lap time then the SPB's. In fact, an SP3 car took overall win in one of the sprints at LR despite having to pass the entire SPB field because of the split start.

But the Glen is a different type of track. Last years times at the Glen suggest it will be very close.
May be more difficult for the SP3 pole sitter as that car could have less chances at a clear lap if the SP944's
are the second group on the grid.

Fred and Bella

whether the nine or the twelves, I'd just like to be in a position to watch their last lap from behind (and not as a lapped car )

(hey, even Turtles can dream...)
